Bobby Robson announced
his squad of 22 on 28 April 1986. There was also an additional
standby list of six: Martin Hodge, the Sheffield Wednesday
goalkeeper; Stewart
Robson, Arsenal; Trevor Francis (who scored twice in the 1982
tournament), Sampdoria; Dave Watson (not the Dave Watson that
had been discarded in 1982), Norwich City; Paul Bracewell,
Everton; and
Mick Harford, Luton Town. None of them were needed.
